Svensk-Etiopiska föreningen är en opolitisk, religiöst obunden vänskapsförening som bildades i Stockholm 1952. De breda och djupa kontakterna mellan Sverige och Etiopien, som grundlades redan på 1950-talet, är basen och den gemensamma bakgrunden för föreningens medlemmar. Även etiopier bosatta i Sverige har tillfört föreningen ökad kunskap och förståelse för Etiopien, dess land och folk.
Årsmötet för verksamhetsåret 2019 genomfördes först i oktober 2020 mot normalt under våren. Årets pandemi har varit ett problem för föreningen eftersom det har varit svårt att arrangera fysiska möten.
Mötet genomfördes med ett fåtal medlemmar på plats i EthioStar, 15 stycken. Presentatörer var ambassadörsparet Torbjörn Petterson och Annika Janson som berättade om sin tid i Etiopien under titeln ”Tre fantastiska år i Etiopien”.
Ett antal medlemmar följde mötet via Internet. Föreningen sände mötet i sin helhet via ett par olika kanaler.
Mötet fungerade relativt bra trots ny teknik och ny form.

Famine - Terrible Hole in Country's Conscience
[Addis Fortune] The last time the ugly prospect of mass starvation stuck out its head, drought affected at least 20 million people across the country in 2015. Ethiopia was better prepared than at any time before in its history. Catastrophic outcomes were averted, with Ethiopia's own resources paying more than half of the funds required for emergency responses - a record in the country's history passed with no recognition of its monumental significance.
